Collard wraps are nature’s tortilla and a ridiculously easy way to eat dark iron-rich leafy greens for breakfast. In a way that’s not a smoothie. A break from slurping. Reinvigorate your digestion by letting it do its thing. Digestion starts in the mouth with movement in our jaw. The elicited saliva from our gums starts …
Oh bananas, how I love thee. You are my ultimate fast food. If you are ripe and ready, I grab a few several of you for a meal. You make smoothies creamy and add fiber, vitamins, and protein to their bulk. You’re delicious dehydrated and make wonderful banana bread and even cookies. I used to …
Quick bites–which I’m coining in relation to Feed Your Skull–as a fewer words, quick share of something delicious I’ve made recently. Jeremy and I have been vying for blender privileges this week and yesterday I WON! 🙂 So I threw in all the greens. We had a little cilantro, fresh basil from the farmers market, …
RECIPE Buying reduced bananas has its perks! Not only are they cheap but they are rarely too bad for ‘regular’ consumption. They are the perfect ripeness for snacking, smoothy-ing and have reached maximum nutritional value. Since we noticed our co-op has the best ripe bananas we’ve been trying to buy them there.

Chocolate and pumpkin pie spice. Yes. In a smoothie. Yes again. This smoothie makes enough for two people or go all in and have it …
I made this smoothie so I could enjoy a quick and nutritious breakfast after my morning walk. I call it my AC/DC smoothie because it was bright and sassy, a perfect drink for a sunny day. You can almost hear T.N.T. playing in the background. This combination isn’t my typical go-to and I’m so glad …
How many of you have seen the banana ghosts float around Facebook and Pinterest? I have—about a million times to be exact—but I’ve never actually made them! They are pretty cute and all you need is a ripe banana and a few chocolate chips (dairy free). Break the banana in half and push the chocolates …
This week is about body positive actions and affirmations we can add to our daily rhythms plus a green smoothie for nourishment! The Affirmation I am perfect and complete just the way I am I wanted to touch on this subject because of my own habit I recently noticed. It’s a ‘practice’ I have done …
A BIG thank you to Crazy Raw Vegan for including me in her fave list—the feeling is mutual—all the way back in June. Sorry I’ve taken so long! I heard about ‘crazy’ inspiring Sara when Mimi Kirk shared one of her posts on Facebook in 2011 (whoa! time flies). Subscribed. So how does this work? …
